It’s the latest bee movie, coming next month.

Uncork’d Entertainment releases ROYAL JELLY on digital platforms September 14. Written and directed by Sean Riley, it stars Elizabeth McCoy, Sherry Lattanzi, Fiona McQuinn, Lucas T. Matchett and Jake McCoy. The synopsis: “When Aster [McCoy], a reclusive high-school bee enthusiast, is taken under the wing of a mysterious mentor named Tresa [Lattanzi], everything Aster loves is shattered. Snatched away to Tresa’s remote, nightmarish apiary, Aster finds herself captive to Tresa’s grotesque plan–being groomed as a diseased hive’s next queen. Aster must find the strength within to exterminate Tresa and her godforsaken brood to survive.”
